Ritchie

Given the city’s steady influx of foreigners, it’s topical to discover that two British artists who’ve made their own leap across the pond are set to perform on the same week as part of SESC Consolação’s British Invasion.

In the first of two shows, Brazilian ‘80s pop star Ritchie – he's lived in Brazil for over 40 years now and made a name for himself singing in Portuguese – invades the stage to perform songs from his aptly named cover album, 60, which is a double entendre for his age as well as for the decade that all the tracks were originally released. Perhaps it's only fitting that his set list, despite being entirely in English for the first time, will be as little-known as he is back in his native UK.

The mini-season also features a solo set on 17 March by Wayne Hussey of the British goth band, The Mission.
